The Coast to Coast Path

The Coast to Coast Path (C2C) traverses northern England for a total distance of 192 miles. Most walkers travel from west to east, from St. Bees on the Irish Sea to Robin Hood's Bay on the North Sea. The path was proposed and designed by Alfred Wainwright in the 1970s. It crosses through three national parks, including the Lake District, the Yorkshire Dales, and the North York Moors. Most of the walk is on park hiking trails and public footpaths through private land; there are a few stretches on paved back roads. The C2C path was originally proposed as a twelve day walk, but more days can be added to allow a more leisurely pace.

  1. Look at this grin. This dude has either been in the rain too long, stepped on too many cow pies, or hoisted too many pints of ale at the local pub.
